What is it?

SCSHSHGD2508 is a compact yet powerful half bridge (two output channels) gate driver for all types of power semiconductor switches (Si, SiC & GaN) and can work up to 250 kHz switching frequency, preferable for new generation SiC and GaN power switches for high speed operation.

Why did you make it?

I love making power electronics I have seen that all available boards are costly with less features so decided to make my own.

What makes it special?

Up to 250 kHz switching frequency Standard +15/-5 volts drive (can be provided with other preferable options) Direct 3.3v and 5v pulse support, no need of additional interfacing circuit 8A peak current drive capability On board isolated supplies Half-bridge drive with inbuilt dead band option available Buffered inputs for low noise Under voltage lock out protection Short-circuit protection using VCESAT and Fault feedback Up to 1000 volts DC link support Power and fault indication LED Dimension: 80mm × 65mm
